I'm taking the August LSAT. I am consistently PTing in the high 160s. I have made substantial improvements over my journey even though I have only been studying for around four months. This whole law school thing has been a new goal for me, I didn't consider it until last winter and I'm graduating in May. However, I want to succeed - like really succeed. I want to get into a law school, I want to prove that I can do well on this test, I want to prove to myself that I'm capable of putting my mind to something, but I can't seem to get higher than a 169. I know I'm not totally prepared for this test. I know not all the concepts are totally solid for me. But I've been successfully intuiting a lot of the harder questions. I feel like I'm fast enough at the other questions that I can give myself enough time to really handle the others. I'm a good test taker. Still, I feel like all this effort is pointless. I'm disappointed. I worry that if I retake the test later on, I'll be even less focused on studying because of college and that'll hurt my score even more. Most of the mistakes I'm making are on a select few hard questions, but it's still so demoralizing not being perfect. I don't know at this point. Any advice?

I just worry that if I push my test date to October I'll be so busy with school I won't have time to study and my score won't improve or will get worse. I think more often that not I know an AC I select is in some way incorrect but it's close enough to what I think it should be or want it to be that I don't consider all the options. I'm still scoring like 168-169 with regular frequency it just feels bad not to break into the 170s even though I feel like I could.
